This is the journey of Honeybunches. He is a 13 y.o who has Autism, Bipolar Disorder and NASH (A liver disease). I'll share our challenges, inspirations, hopes and dreams of raising a child with special needs. I hope to inspire others through sharing my experiences, writing, poetry, tips and resources I've found beneficial.

Small situation at school yesterday; DH coming home
Honeybunches' teacher called this morning. She said that yesterday he was in the computer lab before dismissal time. When it was time to leave he refused. He began throwing the keyboard and mouse plus knocking things over. He had to have a quick restraint and was escorted down to the time out space in the behavioral room. He calmed himself. Then when it was time to get onto the bus, he tried refusing again. His 1:1 aide and another male aide had to escort him onto the bus. I'm glad they did that because I was just getting on the bus when school was getting out and it was time to get on the bus. They would have had to wait an hour for me to get back here, or my brother would have to go pick him up. IDK if he could handle him when he's like that. :( His teacher said they didn't want him to get into the habit of having me come get him when he refuses to get on the bus. I'm glad that she did that. Yesterday when Honeybunches came home, I asked how his day was. He told me "Awesome", but he didn't have his communication book to tell me otherwise so I could not talk to him about it. His aide and teacher apologized for the book not coming home. She did call me this morning and his aide actually got on the bus here so he could tell me about it. Those are both good things. I appreciate their communication. His teacher also mentioned that he's been silly and hyper lately. She wondered if it could be med related. Nothing has changed. I told her it could just be the seasonal changes affecting his Lithium level. DH said a big part of his hyperness could just be that he's not here, but I was noticing little changes even when he was here. I was blaming that on Honeybunches feeding off of DH's negativity. IDK. 1:1 aide was asking me if Honeybunches is like that again should he leave him here when I'm not home. I told him that we don't have to worry about it anymore, because DH is coming home today. That was the shortest "Vacation" ever. IDK if he is ready. They did some med changes so we'll see.
